Memphis followed the Clemson script.

Memphis was one of the worst seeding mistakes the committee has ever made. They were the underdog.

Just wait until they expand the tournament to 80 teams in a couple of years. That 17-18 matchup between the 10th place teams of the Big Ten and the SEC is going to be a barnburner.

acutally today's slate *has* been a lot better. some great games even in the top seeds. UNC is playing like Mizzou down the stretch here. had the chance to take the lead and completely shat themselves.

Should be, been looking up at us for quite a while.

Ok guys, Illini getting ready to tip off here in a few minutes.
on CBS. Anybody betting on this game? Illini -4.5. SOmethin' tells me Xavier will spring the upset.


Also, keep an eye on the Spartans, also about to tip off. They are on truTV!

Tune in!!!

And what exactly have you guys won? Hell it has almost been as long for Arkansas as it has been Indiana.

You guys aren't even at Purdues level.

Illinois will probably win tonight but Brad Underwood is a terrible basketball coach.

Governor Commodus Maximus won't let me bet on Illinois teams when I am in Illinois and there is no sports betting (yet) in Wisconsin, at least on apps. Not gonna drive to Indiana just to bet and I don't have a guy so I am/was SOL.

The first round was the most boring I can remember.

Most games weren't even close

I've taken to making rock chalk parlays with multiple favorites just to give myself a decent return.

Congrats Brick, you guys are a damn good team and now get to play at home.

...and lose by 20.

Unless they get Gonzaga. Houston is going to Messenger them out of the tournament.

I don't think so. Any of the Big 10 teams could give Houston a run for its money.

Houston is obviously great defensively, but every year, they fall apart against talented teams because they can't put the ball in the basket. For Sampson's defensive genius, he can never seem to figure out how to attack a defense.

That’s not this year’s Houston team. They are a top 10 to 15 offense.

You may be right.

I'm probably biased because every year, I get infatuated with Houston and their physicality, but every year, they disappoint.

This is the year I stopped, so it would only be right that this is the year they actually put it all together.

This Arkansas/St. John’s game is scared shit show for both sides, why officials think they have to be the show is beyond me.

These officials are an embarrassment. They insist onaking themselves part of the game.

Why do refs in all sports operate from the mindset that, if it is close, don't blow the whistle? Their default is always to blow the whistle when it should be the opposite.

looks like another great win for Calipari's resume, as a huge-ass underdog.

Let’s go Hawgs!
